Pin basting problems
So I pin baste the heck out of this lap size top. Stretch the heck out of the backing...using a sheet this time. Smooth out the batting. Lay out the top. Smooth it out too and pin and pin and pin about 3-4" apart. Using the walking foot on my DSM but has small throat or regular size throat. Machine is a Singer that I bought at JoAnns last Dec.
So now I'm quilt and the walking foot is "moving" the fabric rather than sewing over it. OMG I think I solved the problem. It was making funny noises. I think I need a new quilting foot.
